My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hello, my name is Calo -- and one thing I am not is slow. I need to have things to do -- and one thing this is due to is my breed.

I am a border collie through and through and when you take me home, please know that I am the doggie version of a mild workaholic. I am very smart (please see above for impressive rhyming skills), trainable, and agile and really want to exercise all my talents for a good while all day long.

Here`s what`s on my daily agenda: solid walks, fetch, play with toys, training and tricks (touch, spin, etc.), then some more enrichment. Then we start again. No rest for the weary.

Are you an active person (in body and mind), looking for a suitably companion? If so, you have just found him.
